I used up2date tricks to go from RH8 to RH9 (replaced redhat-release, 
ran up2date, boom upgraded) and from RH9 to FC1 simply by downloading 
the apt-get FC1 RPM from fedora.us, installying it, and apt-get update 
&& apt-get dist-upgrade.

I'm not running anything crazy (UML/SELinux/not even X), it's just a 
small server for friends and family.  I'd assumed by how well it worked 
in the past that it was supported (I'd read about the procedure on a 
forum).  Was what I did before no more dangerous than doing so now?  The 
biggest change I'd have to worry about if doing it "by hand" would be 
the upgrade to 2.6 I'd guess.

It's a small server for friends and family.  If it were anything serious 
I'd be on RHEL in a "proper" COLO anyways :)  I just know i'm not the 
only one in this situation, as these cheap dedicated providers have been 
springing up everywhere!
